On the road again...
Joe: Thanks for your concern! ;o) But actually VO2Max is DESIGNED to do just that. ANY experienced runner, like yourself who can run a sub-3 marathon should NOT even attempt our VO2Max Interview. I thought there was a disclaimer comment somewhere and, if not, we do need to add it. Our VO2Max Interview is provided for THOSE WHO HAD NEVER RUN A RACE AND HAD NO IDEA WHERE THEY ARE to get the ball-park figure of where they start IN RUNNING. Here we are talking about some one who can't even run 15-minutes non-stop. If you can run for a half an hour without any problem, at least I personally always encourage them to just get out to a local high school track and run 4 laps and get a mile time and use it. VO2Max Interview is for those who can't even do that--or those whom I would not suggest to do that.....

There is.
"If you have never ran a race, take the VO2Max interview to estimate your VO2Max."
It's right there on the first page you see after you click "Race Time Predictor" on the home page.
I write. I read. I run. One time, I ran a lot on my 50th birthday.
